Hi men,

is it possible to slow-down the Arabic speech ? You switch from the lower-intermediate where all the speech is english to the Intermediate where you speak a fast Arabic.
The Target of this podCast are people who want to learn how to speak and how to understand Arabic, not for those whom already know Arabic.
I suggest you in the InterMediate level to keep having the explanation in Arabic, but a bit more slower.
give a look to this english podcast, and notice the way he speaks www.eslpod.com.

Anyway keep up the good work, I\'m enjoying and using it soo much.
Thanks to you all ;-)

Yes, I agree that the Arabic comments a bit slower, so as to enable us to imitate those things in our talk. You may say slowly and then say again in a flow. That will greatly enhance our comprehension as well as ability to talk.

Secondly, Sound Masculine are not the problem as such. It is Broken Masculine which give us trouble. If you please could take up this.

Nevertheless, your efforts are laudable and I am none to take away credit from you.

May Allah increase your strength.

Thanks for the comments;
It is useful and important for us to read any comments that change toward improving the work.
We are taking the explaining speed in the consideration, we did our best to translate some things that might be hard, however it is indeed important to slow down when we speak Arabic only.

I really like the way you try to instill arabic into beginners. My suggestion is to make it a little bit slower and repeatition won't hurt ;)

thanks

As salamu Alaikum,

I want to thank Ehab and other guys for creating such a nice site that helps the learners of the Arabic Language profoundly. As a learner, I have just discovered and explored the site and I enjoyed listening to some of the podcasts which I find truly useful and informative.But I believe a service like this should be free of charge for all.

Thank you again.

Shokran daniel for the comment,
We already repeat the dialogue in beginner lessons three times and then explain it in more details, it would take you some time to get use to the podcast system, but sure, very soon you'll find big difference,, just keep it up and good luck.

Ahlan Tumbaki;
All of us at ArabicPod are pleased that you have found our website beneficial. As you and everyone know, all audio files are free to anyone who wants to learn Arabic. However, if someone is really serious about learning Arabic, then the basic/premium subscription is a solution. We work day and night to keep the work up and the money that we get from subscriptions goes towards the cost of running the website which is very expensive. As well as paying for the site to be up, we have to pay for bandwidth, storage, designers, developers and teachers. If we didn’t charge for the site then no way would ArabicPod continue to grow and succeed.

We did our best to give reasonable prices and we offered materials that can't be found anywhere else over the net to make you feel that it is worth to subscribe.
Feel free to download all mp3 files for free, and if you or any one else subscribe with us, that would obviously keeps us work for everyone’s benefits

Marhaban Ehab,

I am very thankful to you and all the guys in this podcast who contributed a lot for the success of this noble project. I have been downloading all this lessons and play it all day in our home so I can listen and get accustomed to these wonderful lessons. Now my kids are learning faster than me and talk among themselves in Arabic while in school. Their classmates and teachers are really amazed and wonder what language they speak. They do it with a lot of humor and I am very happy. I will be bringing all these lessons when I go to Qatar to work in a construction company. I know I will have the confidence as I interact with a lot of Arabic speaking people there.

By that way, I cannot download this particular podcast in MP3 format. When I tried, It downloads in HTML format. Can you check it out?

Shokran jazillan,

Mar7aba Rey,

We just tested downloading this lesson and it seems to work. It might have been the internet connection at the time so please try again.

By the way, great to hear that you and your kids are picking up the language from these podcasts, Hope you keep at it and all the best on your job in Qatar

hello to all,

in my opinion, the lessons are really so bad written. there is a mixture between translating with latin latters as academic and slang as well. me myself, i can not understand what is written in arabic with latin letters. i rather read it directly with arabic letters. then the explanation for the grammer is also not understandable. :)

Ahlan Alina;
We always welcome and respect any opinion as soon as it helps us to improve the quality of our lessons.
Are you familiar with the Arabic transcription or romanisation? if you search for the word "pronunciation" in our lessons page you'll find a lesson that explain the logic behind using some of the Latin letters.
It is good that you rely on Arabic letters in reading, we encourage everyone to do so, but we know that many of our listeners ask for the romanisation, so we try our best to help everyone.
If you find it hard to understand this lesson then please have a go with our Level Test, to make sure that you are listening to the right level of lesson.
We wish you the best
بالتوفيق يا ألينا

Hi Ehab,

First of all, thank you for respecting my opinion. Secondly, I am used with almost all kind of transcription from arabic with latin letters. There is no official way to transcript by using numbers instead of letters, that's the main point.This way is used just by the arab people in the slang, when you type on messenger for exemple. You can not teach some one to write for exemple 6abib, sa3'eer, 7ob and so on, when you know that whenever they will try to read a text they will be confused finding no numbers. Then there is a mixture also..For example in romanian course we use to write "ualad" in english is "walad". Almost every country has it's own style of transcription as they have their language and alphabet, to be easy to realise the pronounciation. That's why is "cheb" and "shab" or even "sab" (with a coma under the letter s). The idea is that you can not mixture all of this and the most important is the translation with numbers. If I go to any proffesor who teaches arabic, he will never know what means "7'er" for exemple, unless he is an arabic person or is living with young arab friends.

Good luck for you too!:)

hello, I am new here - but I'm having some trouble downloading this PDF.

I'm taking Arabic, and I we're studying this right now. This is wonderful. Thank you guys for your hard work.

If you tell us what kind of message you get when you try to download, then that would help.
Make sure you are logged in with the right subscription before you download PDFs.
Bettawfeeq (good luck).

hi

cant download this pdf - anything different with other pdf's? neve had the problem before
cheers

Ahlan plop;
It has been a while since we've heard from you.. Please try to download the file now.. It should be OK.
Salaam

I still had a problem downloading this same pdf for which I had an html extension in addition to the pdf extension. So I simply clipped the .html and accepted the prompt to retain only .pdf and the file appeared correctly, then.

That is weird, I did download the file just now and it was (.pdf) without any problem. If you tell us what browser you use (i.e internet explorer, firefox..) then we might find out why that happens. Also if there is anyone else having this problem please let us know about it.
